    Give the Humminbird 737 a look. I used one for 2years sold for 35.00 less than what I paid for it. When I upgraded my 2nd unit to color also. I was more than pleased with it and it convinced me into investing in the more expensive HB units.

    It comes standard with the Quadbeam plus. A great tool for finding structure and fish.
    Only drawback is it is B/W but I really liked mine.

    Well guys after some help here and some searching on the forums, I decided on a 565. Just got back in from Gander Mt. Thank you for all the advise.

    Thanks John. I will. I'm going to mount it this afternoon and hopefully try it tomorrow. I know I did a search on here and 565 was probably one of the most recommended units for the money. Like I said, looking to get a new boat in a few years, so when I do, I'll go all out on electronics for it, but now just looking for something descent to get buy with.

    Mounted it today and tried it out. Works awesome. Nice to be able to read the depth at 30mph. Awesome detail. Brush looks great on it. Just not any fish on the brush. Hmmm
